How To Slow Down The Progression Of Macular Degeneration?

Macular degeneration is an age-related eye disease which bothers a large number of people aged more than fifty

. Macular degeneration can cause people some damages to the retina, and whats the worse, may cause people to lose their vision. Once we get macular degeneration, it is hard to bring our eyes back to the original state, the thing we need to do is to try every means to slow down its progress. The following will introduce some methods to slow down the progression of macular degeneration.

There are two kinds of macular degeneration, dry and wet macular degenerations. Macular degeneration mainly causes people to lose the sight in the central field of vision. Though people still have some peripheral vision, they will feel difficult or impossible to read or recognize faces after central vision lost. If we find there is some thing wrong with our eyes, for example, blurred vision or minor loss of vision, it is wise to visit our eye doctor immediately to check the eye problem. One point we should bear in mind, the earlier we find the eye problem, the easier for us to slow down its progression.

Though macular degeneration is a common eye problem among aged people, a lot of people do not know much how to slow down its progression. The study made by Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS) will give us some help.

Researches show that a specific high-dose formulation of antioxidants and zinc have some good effects on slowing down the progression of the advanced macular degeneration (AMD). In addition, researches also prove that Vitamins have the function of stopping macular degeneration from intermediate stage to advanced stage, which means Vitamins can prevent us from loss vision.

Besides, LAST, which is short for the Lutein Anti-Oxidant Supplementation Trial, can also help us to slow down the progression of macular degeneration. Researches show that taking in some anti-oxidants and zinc together with 10 mg of daily Lutein will be good for improving our macular degeneration. And it is advised by ARED that people with macular degeneration should take in certain quantity and types of antioxidants and zinc everyday.

Just as we mentioned above, when aged people find there are some problems with their vision, they should visit their eye doctor promptly. Their eye doctor will check if they have caused macular degeneration, at which stage, and also give them some instructions on how to slow down the progression of macular degeneration. Though the AREDS formulation can not treat macular degeneration completely, it has some effects in slowing down its progression.
